One, I burn all of mine for shop heat in the winter, have a waste oil furnace. Two, filter removal is a non issue. I take a small screwdriver and a hammer and poke a hole in the bottom of the filter(s) and let the oil drain out into the catch pan and then use a nylon strap wrench to remove the now empty filter... easy.
My used oil, brake fluid and transmission fluid goes into 55 gallon drums and the drums are plumbed into the centrifugal separator on the waste oil furnace that spins out the water and solids before it's injected into the burner in the furnace.
I'm sure that commercial outlets that offer waste oil collection sell it. Good business practice and keeps the enviroment cleaner.
Oil never looses it's lubrication quality. It becomes saturated with the by products of combustion and the additive package gets used up. Both can be remediated and the oil used again and again and again... or burned, like I do.
